Giant Eagle’s Largest Facility Successfully Implements Manhattan Active® Warehouse Management, Advancing Multi-Site Rollout

Manhattan Associates Inc. (Nasdaq: MANH) today announced that Giant Eagle, one of the nation’s largest food retailers and distributors, has successfully implemented Manhattan Active® Warehouse Management (WM), at its largest facility in Bedford Heights, Ohio. Spanning over one million square feet, this technology upgrade is part of the company’s ongoing commitment to adopt cutting-edge, best-in-class technology for a highly automated logistics network.

This is Giant Eagle’s fifth facility in their cloud migration to Manhattan Active WM, with plans to transition its remaining two DCs by September 2025. With Manhattan, Giant Eagle successfully completed each implementation with a quick return to full production levels within days of launching the updated system. In its first week of operation, Giant Eagle’s warehouse surpassed expectations, processing hundreds of thousands of inbound and outbound cases. This strong start underscores the transformative impact of the new system in driving operational excellence from day one.

“The seamless implementation is a testament to the outstanding partnership we have with Manhattan,” said Dan Kapalko, vice president of technology systems at Giant Eagle. "Manhattan’s expertise and commitment, combined with the collaboration across our teams, have made this a true success. This marks a significant milestone for us, and we’re excited about the continued improvements we’ll see in our operations.”

“We are extremely proud to continue our longstanding partnership with Giant Eagle and join them in their growth journey,” said Stewart Gantt, executive vice president, professional services at Manhattan. “The smooth implementation and strong performance in the first week showcase the scalability and efficiency of the solution.”

Manhattan Active Warehouse Management is the first cloud-native WMS that unifies every aspect of distribution planning and execution. Built entirely from microservices, Manhattan Active WM ushers in a new level of supply chain speed, agility and ease of use. It seamlessly coordinates with Manhattan Active® Transportation Management (TM), which Giant Eagle is currently implementing, to completely unify warehouse and transportation operations. By leveraging both Manhattan Active WM and Manhattan Active TM, Giant Eagle will be able to optimize distribution and transportation execution in a single, cloud-native experience.
